It was one morning in February 13, 1990. Jake was getting himself prepared for his highschool.
"Wait up!" Jakes brother shouted as he was getting to leave his home.
"Come on Thomas lets go, my school is going to start soon."
Jake opened the door and walked his brother to his school. Jake then dashed to his highschool as if he was going to be late, it was still 7 AM, his school starts at 8. Although jake was never late for school he just like to run.

Jake was considered a "loner", he only had one friend which was Josh and he always ate in the cafeteria alone or with Josh. He had a highschool crush on a girl named Alex, which was normal at that time. She was a tomboy and she seemed to get along with everyone she meets. Jake gets along with his brother, they liked the same songs, same food and talked alot.

The bell rang and the teachers locked the class room doors so the late ones couldn't go in. According to the schools "policy", they believed that it would give more "discipline". Jake had arrived in his first lesson which was history class 15 minutes earlier and he sat on the right corner of the class. Josh was seated beside Jake,
"Whats up Jake." Josh greeted,
"Sup, why isn't our original history  teacher here?" Jake asked.
"They said she was absent but they were not sure, just like Max and Alicia, they have not been coming to school for days."
"Hmm, strange, seems like everyones starting to disappear all of a sudden."

After hours of listening to boring classes the bell rang and lunch had started. Jake sat on his normal eating spot with Josh as they talked about dogs. 10 minutes into lunch and there was Max walking around the cafeteria. His hair was unusual and messed up, he had scratches all over his face and he was acting weird. Max told everyone that he met a monster and several agents in the woods and it tried to ate him, it was obvious that no one believed him.
"IT IS REAL, THE MONSTER TRIED TO TAKE ME!!!" Max shouted as his friends dragged him to the clinic.

"What was that all about?" Jake confusingly asked,
"I have no god damn idea." Josh replied.
